Invasive Plants

To learn more about invasives in Rhode Island, please visit the Rhode Island Invasive Species Council. The RI Invasive Species Council gathers information on the presence, distribution, ecological and economic impacts, and management of invasive species; promote uses of native species and non-invasive alternatives throughout Rhode Island; and work cooperatively with researchers, conservation organizations, government agencies, the green industries, and the general public to identify and manage invasive species pro-actively and effectively.
